Weaverville Fire Protection District (WFPD) is an independent special district formed in 1898. We have been a Firewise community since 2008 and provide cooperative wildland fire management activities in coordination with state and federal agencies. The WFPD boundary encompasses approximately 4,073 acres but the District has historically responded to a “Goodwill Response Area” that extends well beyond the District’s boundary and sphere of influence (SOI) that are not within any local jurisdiction responsible for providing fire protection services. WFPD is seeking to annex its Goodwill Response Area and establish/increase a Special Tax or Assessment that would provide sustainable base funding.
